EOS fell through the first major support level at $2.7326. Finding support at the second major support level at $2.6273, EOS recovered to $2.73 levels before sliding back.

Through the 2nd half of the day, EOS managed to break back through the first major support level to a high $7.7982 before easing back.

At the time of writing, EOS was up by 0.22% to $2.7754. A bullish start to the day saw EOS rise from an early morning low $2.7690 to a high $2.7800.

For the day ahead

EOS would need to move through to $2.80 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $2.8681 into play.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for EOS to break out from Monday’s high $2.8466.

Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level at $2.8681 would likely leave EOS short of $2.90 levels.

Failure to move through to $2.80 levels would see EOS struggle throughout the day.

A fall through to sub-$2.75 levels would bring the first major support level at $2.6489 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, EOS should steer well clear of sub-$2.60 levels on the day.
